Answer:
Option a
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
In ∆ABC, DE||BC and AD = 4x-3 ,AE = 8x-7 ,
BD = 3x-1 and CE = 5x-3
To find :-
Find the value of x ?
Solution :-
Given that
In ∆ABC, D and E are the points on AB and AC respectively.
DE || BC
AD = 4x-3
AE = 8x-7
BD = 3x-1
CE = 5x-3
We know that
By Basic Proportionality Theorem,
AD/DB = AE/EC
On substituting these values in the above condition
=> (4x-3)/(3x-1) = (8x-7)/(5x-3)
On applying cross multiplication then
=> (4x-3)(5x-3) = (3x-1)(8x-7)
=> 4x(5x-3)-3(5x-3) = 3x(8x-7)-1(8x-7)
=> 20x²-12x-15x+9 = 24x²-21x-8x+7
=> 20x²-27x+9 = 24x²-29x+7
=> 24x²-29x+7-20x²+27x-9 = 0
=> 4x²-2x-2 = 0
=> 2(2x²-x-1) = 0
=> 2x²-x-1 = 0/2
=> 2x²-x-1 = 0
=> 2x²-2x+x-1 = 0
=> 2x(x-1)+1(x-1) = 0
=> (x-1)(2x+1) = 0
=> x-1 = 0 (or) 2x+1 = 0
=> x = 1 (or) 2x = -1
=> x = 1 (or) x = -1/2
But x can't be negative.
Therefore, x = 1
Answer:-
The value of x for the given problem is 1
Used Theorem:-
Basic Proportionality Theorem:-
(Thales Theorem)
" A line drawn parallel to the one side of a triangle intersecting other two sides at two different points then the line divides the other two sides in the sane ratio".
